There were some big wins and close games in Mt Barker on the weekend, with our A Grade and U18s taking home the chocolates and both our Senior Women and U17 Girls also recording victories, in what was the final minor round of the HFLW. Both our HFLW teams are through to the finals, so check out the fixture (coming on Wednesday) to see where and when they’re playing. Meanwhile, our two SANFL Juniors went down against tough competition on Sunday and have one round to go until finals. Our U12 Girls, sitting third, will be playing finals footy. See you on the weekend Devs fans!
